There was silence in the woodshed.
As time passed, the atmosphere here became solemn.
At this moment, a very soft voice sounded: "So?"
Po Hong was stunned: "What?"
Song Shuwan grabbed Po Hong's collar and forced her to look at her: "You talk so much and talk about all nonsense. Why should I believe you when you can't produce any evidence?"
Hong Po frowned, annoyance flashed across her face: "Is there something wrong with what I said? It's obvious that the Song family's case can be overturned easily, but why does Prince Pei keep delaying it for so long and there is no movement? Imperial Concubine, this At this time, do you dare to touch your heart and say that you have never had similar doubts?"
Song Shuwan smiled: "Why don't I dare to say it from the bottom of my heart? Po Hong, I don't know who is behind you, but you just want to sow discord with just a few words. You and your master are so brainless."
After saying these words, Song Shuwan turned around and left.
Hong Po sneered: "If you don't believe me, you can go to Pei Huan and ask him how the Song family's case is being investigated. Then ask him why there has been no progress. Finally, ask him whether the emperor is arranging to overturn the case. These three If you ask, no matter what the answer is, the Crown Princess should know it in her heart."
Song Shuwan didn't stop and left the woodshed directly.
The next moment, she and Pei Huan looked at each other, and the man's deep eyes were indifferent, as if nothing in the outside world could arouse his interest.
After a brief pause, Song Shuwan stepped forward and said, "Po Hong asked me to ask you three questions."
Pei Huan nodded: "Ask."
"How is the investigation going on the Song family case?"
Pei Huan frowned slightly, a little confused, but still replied: "We are still investigating. You are aware of all the progress."
Song Shuwan lowered her eyes and curled her fingers slightly: "Why has there been no progress?"
Pei Huan noticed something was wrong, glanced at the door of the woodshed, and pinched his eyebrows: "It seems that Hong Po's provocation was successful."
Song Shuwan twitched the corner of her mouth, but there was no smile in her eyes: "It's not exactly Hong Po's provocation. This is also the answer I want to know."
Hearing this, Pei Huan smiled: "If you also want to know, then I have nothing to say. What is the third question?"
"Your Majesty, are there any arrangements to overturn the verdict?"
The wind blew by, blowing up the hair and clothes of Song Shuwan and Pei Huan.
After a moment, Pei Huan sighed: "The emperor will arrange to overturn the case after I return to Beijing, but before that, I have arrested several people, all related to the Song family's case."
Song Shuwan nodded and walked around Pei Huan.
At this time, Pei Huan spoke again: "Do you still believe me?"
Song Shuwan stopped, turned her back to Pei Huan for a moment, and said softly: "I still believe it now, but I can't guarantee what will happen in the future. I just hope that the prince can solve my worries as soon as possible, otherwise..."
She didn't say any more, but the threat was clear.
Pei Huan pinched his eyebrows and said, "I understand. When things in the city are settled, I will definitely solve your worries."
Song Shuwan walked away, and she didn't realize that snow had fallen from the sky until her whole body became cold. She stood in the snow for a long time, and a layer of it had already fallen on her body.
Fei Yuan ran over with her cloak in her arms: "Prince Princess, why are you standing in the snow? What should you do if you catch a cold?"
The cloak was draped on her shoulders, and Song Shuwan folded it slightly: "Go back and make me a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold."
"good."
The two of them walked back. Not long after Song Shuwan returned to the room, Fei Yuan brought a bowl of ginger soup into the room.
Song Shuwan was drinking when she caught sight of the secret agent at the door looking around. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "What are you doing sneakily over there? Get in!"
An Sanqing laughed a few times: "Prince Princess, please come down and take a look."
Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows: "Did Pei Huan ask you to come?"
"That's not true. It was my subordinate's idea to come."
"Is it?"
Song Shuwan smiled and did not comment on An San's words.
An San scratched his head and took two steps forward: "Prince Concubine, I would like to ask a question that exceeds the rules."
Song Shuwan finished drinking the ginger soup and said calmly: "Since you know that the question is beyond the rules, then don't ask it. I guess I don't like to hear it either."
An San was a little anxious: "The Crown Princess hasn't heard the question yet, how can I say you don't like to hear it?"
Before Song Shuwan opened her mouth, Fei Yuan took over the words: "Do you need to say more? It turns out that you are here just for the Crown Prince. The Crown Princess is angry, but you want to mention the Crown Prince. Isn't it because the Crown Princess doesn't like to hear it? ?”
When she opened her mouth, she started to alternate between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. The short sentence made Fei Yuan's words very convoluted.
Not to mention the hidden three, even Song Shuwan couldn't help but hold her forehead and said: "Okay, Fei Yuan, please step back first."
Fei Yuan turned around and took a look, then immediately retreated to the back.
The next moment, Song Shuwan looked at An San: "Although Fei Yuan's words are a bit convoluted, you also know the meaning. I won't say more. You can just step back."
An San was still a little hesitant: "But the Crown Princess..."
"Um?"
Song Shuwan's tone rose slightly, and An San immediately stopped what he had not finished, bowed and left.
Two days later, Pei Huan arrested many people in Ningyuan City. At the same time, King Yong also appeared again.
When word spread that he was still alive, many people were shocked.
"Didn't you say you were dead with Prince Yong earlier? How come you're alive again now?"
"Not only is Prince Yong alive, but the prince who was said to be near death is also fine."
"It's strange. What do they want to do? How come there are two of them, and they are different from the rumors."
"You all care about Prince Pei and Prince Yong, but I am different. I care more about Princess Pei. I heard that she disappeared after moving out of the inn. I don't know where she is now or what her situation is."
There was a lot of discussion in Ningyuan City, but no matter how great the turmoil on the surface was, it could not outweigh the bloodshed behind the scenes.
Almost none of those arrested by Pei Huan were left alive after interrogation. The only one or two who remained were directly thrown into prison by Pei Huan, never to see the light of day again.
"Wow--"
The chains fell to the ground, and a wheelchair was pushed into the dark cell. The person sitting cross-legged in the corner looked up when he heard the sound, and the face revealed was Prince Ning.
"Hey, is Prince Pei bringing the crown prince here to see my joke?" Prince Ning said with a hint of teasing.
Song Shuwan frowned slightly: "Prince Ning has misunderstood. I came here with the prince not to see Prince Ning's jokes."
Prince Ning said "Oh" and stood up slowly: "Since you are not here to see a joke, are you going to let me go?"
Pei Huan said: "I'm not here to let you go. I arrested someone two days ago. He said he knew Prince Ning, so I wanted to ask, has Prince Ning seen this person?"
As Pei Huan finished speaking, a person was thrown into the cell, and the strong smell of blood instantly filled the air.
